Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; let those who hate Him flee from before His face
As smoke vanishes, so let them vanish; as wax melts before the fire
So the sinners will perish before the face of God; but let the righteous be glad
This is the day which the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Christ is risen from the dead,
Trampling down death by death,
And upon those in the tombs
Bestowing life!
Christ is Risen!
Χριστός ἀνέστη!
Christ is Risen!
Update: I’ve been told this video is from 2014, and simply resurfaced. I’m really surprised I didn’t hear about this anywhere.
I’m leaving the post up, because, frankly, it’s still awesome, but be aware; this is 4 years old now.
Back to the original post:
So, this is video from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, in Jerusalem – possibly the holiest site in all of Christendom, because inside, it contains, well, the Holy Sepulchre; that is, Jesus’ tomb.
(If you remember, from the old Facebook page, I posted this really great interactive infographic from NatGeo last year: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2017/12/was-this-jesus-tomb/)
And now, blood has started to well from Jesus’ burial stone.
And on the Orthodoxy’s Holy Saturday, when Christ is laid up in the tomb!
What a miracle!
UPDATE:
One user suggested comparing the stains to the patterns on the Shroud of Turin, and posted some helpful images (though I’m not sure the video is a very good source for the pattern):
